Folks,  I have been attempting to do text searches within a single pdf
document.  Is there documentation describing if certain common text
search features will work?  For example ca?  will return cat, can, cab,
or ca* will return cactus, canary, california, etc.  Please advise.
I'm not sure of the "rules" for the search utility and can't find any
rules listed when I search the online manual.

Tx
Judith
